It's important to discuss any concerns about medication, especially when it involves managing a condition like ocd (obsessive-compulsive disorder). Here's some general information about the medicines you mentioned: fluvoxin (fluvoxamine): this is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (ssri) commonly used to treat ocd. Ssris are often the first line of treatment for this condition. Restyl (alprazolam): this is a benzodiazepine, a type of medication typically used for anxiety or panic disorders. It can be effective for short-term relief of anxiety symptoms. Regarding taking these medications together: combination therapy: fluvoxamine and alprazolam can be used together in certain circumstances. However, this combination needs to be monitored closely by a healthcare professional due to potential interactions and side effects. Potential interactions: fluvoxamine can increase the concentration of alprazolam in the blood, which may increase the risk of side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired coordination. This is particularly important to consider if you are taking these medications during the day when you may need to be alert. Dosage and timing: the dosage and timing of these medications can be crucial. They must be tailored to your specific needs and health situation. Monitoring for side effects: when combining these medications, close monitoring for side effects and interactions is necessary. This is especially important for starting a new medicine or changing doses. Long-term use of benzodiazepines: it's also worth noting that benzodiazepines are generally recommended for short-term use due to risks of dependence, tolerance, and withdrawal issues. In conclusion, while it's possible to take restyl (alprazolam) and fluvoxin (fluvoxamine) together, it should only be done under the guidance and supervision of a healthcare provider. They can provide the best advice tailored to your health needs and circumstances. Always consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm suffering form contamination ocd and of the psychiatrist had prescribed serta 50 for me but it was very uncomfortable after having it. So I stopped having it after just 2-3 days. Now that my ocd is increasing I thought of having serta 25. But it's not a good feeling after having it. But I have restyl 0.25 or clonotril 0.25 as and when required. Any other alternative medication that I can have for ocd and anxiety?

Hi please do not change dosage or stop medicines at will. If you are uncomfortable and feeling any side effects consult your psychiatrist immediately and apprise him of your situation. He will change the medicine or dosage. Take therapy along with medicines. Consistent therapy along with medicines is needed to help you cope with ocd symptoms. Medicines only help control symptoms temporarily, while therapy gives more sustainable results. Take therapy regularly and apply what you learn in therapy sessions in your life practically.

Get outdoors - go out, meet people, go to social gatherings, beaches, malls, parks anywhere where you can interact and talk with other people. Staying alone only makes memories and feelings haunt your mind. That’s the last thing you want right now. Talk it out - confess everything to a close friend or family member. Someone that you trust. Don’t keep and endure all the pain inside. Cry - nothing is wrong with crying. Its a way to release the pain. Listen to music / go for drives - listening to loud music that you love and going for long drives can help alot. Music is food for the soul. Get a hobby / keep yourself occupied - find something to take your mind off what happened. Become goal oriented, focus on your job, maybe take up a course of study, join a gym, anything to let time pass by. Indulge yourself - treat yourself, buy new clothes, dress nicely, buy yourself things you like. Look sharp and sexy. You want eyes to be on you. Counselling - if you feel you can not endure the pain and are having suicidal thoughts please don’t be ashamed to seek out extra help in the form of counselling. Get a pet - they call them mans best friend for a reason. Cats are awesome too. Finally, love yourself. You are unique, special and one of a kind individual. You should always love who you are more than you love anyone. Just remember, whoever let you go, its their loss!

Restyl is not given for more than 2 weeks for any condition, the cause for the same, like anxiety, stress, depression, etc needs to be taken. It is a highly habit forming medication with long term side effevt like shrinking of brain, personality changes, depression, withdrawal agitation or even seizures. So kindly consult any psychiatrist and fine way to wane of the same and get your primary condition treated. Good luck.

I am not sure who got you hooked onto sleeping pills. On a longer run they will shrink your brain, resulting in early onset dementia, personality changes, memory changes, even withdrawal anxiety, sweating, agitation and even seizures. Kindly consult a psychiatrist, get your sleep evaluated, and he will gradually wane you off the sleeping pills and give pills which promote sleep by acting on the cause of sleep disturbance, he may also educate you on sleep hygiene.

He might survive most likely. He might have cognitive changes and more importantly he should be consulted with a psychiatrist to get evaluated for the behavior. Good luck.

Dear Satya, The present question here is not showing a good concern of yours for someone else and you yourself. If your intentions are not good for someone , please don't do anything in Outrage. And if someone try this for you ,be aware and don't be depressed for such attempts. Be safe and keep everyone safe around you. Prevention is better than cure. It's our moral responsibility to avoid such groups where alcohol is being served and become dangerous in revenge. So don't give chance others to harm you and try to avoid the alcohol and join some health freak group for some fruitful and healthy discussion.
